    There are voices that the main reason for the lack of flights to the moon is that no one has actually landed on it yet.

    I really believed in the moon landings when i was a kid. My Mother and Father even let us watch it at 4 in the morning, i'm British, and i was only 7 years old, so my parents could say i actually saw it on TV as it happened . Now i don't belive. After thinking about it and watching vids by people like Jarra Whitean his moon faker series of videos, i don't buy into the narrative any more. Even NASA's own video says that they are going to have to solve the problems of going through the Van Halen belts, didn't they have to go through them with apollo?, and the other vid by them that says they got rid of the plans. Did the Wright brothers destroy all their data. No, im sorry but I'll belive it when i see it. Stick with the unmanned craft. Seems much safer and reliable.

    There is absolutely no reason to go to the moon. Keep in mind America’s landing was a political statement made possible by superior technical achievement. Soviet's were ahead until we successfully performed rendezvous in the Gemini program. Future of our space program is, as seen with Mars rovers, is interplanetary exploration with robotics. It solves all problems with manned flight, food, water, oxygen, mental and physical health.

    24:00 I don't buy any of these excuses. The moon is the most important military base. Period. There might be a set of factors that the public is not told. Commentors are mentioning the current wars, in September 2018 we had the FED preventing the collapse of the banking system, there are so many examples of waste, everyone knows the nature of fiat money, so it's trite to remind viewers of that issue. Professor Sizemore et al have already shown the trillions sucked into a black hole on dark projects.

  • @ManuelGarcia-ww7gj
    @ManuelGarcia-ww7gj Годину тому

    When will FINALLY achieve fusion power? Until we learn to build gravity generators, never. Fusion reactions in ordinary gravity are NOT self-sustaining, otherwise known as "chain reactions." All of the reactions we use today ARE chain reactions. We have been struggling to make electromagnetism do the job that gravity does in the stars, but I do not believe that will ever happen. The research will continue because too many politically well connected academics are making their living from the research, but I do not see a way for any of their approaches to ever work. So, with no means of generating intense gravitational fields, fusion is not in our future. We would be far better off spending money on cleaner and safer fission plants, probably plants built around the use of thorium as an initial feedstock.

    19:49 1. We could just ship it all out and subcontract it all to China, after apologizing to them for not allowing them to participate in the international space station. Before you dismiss it as a bad joke, we can ask them to build housing throughout America, as an extension of Belt and Road initiative. 2. When we get back to the moon, for laughs, we should tell the public that it's really the first time we went there. But not before then.

    Professor Jim Fetzer has an archive with photos that explain in excruciating detail the thesis that we didn't go to the moon. What boggles the mind is the number of photos of high quality taken on the moon, without the budgeted time to do so, remember, these were customized cameras requiring focus and the men had thick gloves on, etc. There were more problems than that, I'm simplifying into the most basic bottleneck. We are left with the intermediate theory, we went there but faked the photos. On some Apollo missions, you'd have to take on average one photo of high quality about every 60 seconds while you were there... the other missions, almost that frequent... get the idea?
